Frequently Asked Questions About Hazelnut profiterole
What is in a hazelnut profiterole?
A hazelnut profiterole is a small choux pastry filled with cream and served with chocolate sauce and hazelnuts. Depending on the recipe, ground hazelnuts may also be mixed into the filling or chocolate topping.
Is a hazelnut profiterole the same as a cream puff?
They are closely related: both use hollow choux pastry filled with cream. A hazelnut profiterole is typically served as a dessert with chocolate sauce and hazelnuts, while cream puffs may be served plain or with other toppings.
How is a hazelnut profiterole different from an éclair?
A hazelnut profiterole is made from small, round choux buns, while an éclair is shaped into a long pastry. Both can contain cream, but hazelnuts and chocolate sauce are common features of the hazelnut profiterole.
What sauce goes on a hazelnut profiterole?
Chocolate sauce is the usual topping for a hazelnut profiterole, often finished with chopped or ground hazelnuts. Some versions use a richer chocolate ganache, but a thin sauce is easier to pour over the pastry.
How do you make hazelnut profiteroles at home?
Bake small choux pastry mounds until puffed and dry, then let them cool before filling them with pastry cream. For hazelnut profiteroles, add hazelnuts to the cream or topping and finish with chocolate sauce shortly before serving.
Why do hazelnut profiteroles collapse after baking?
Hazelnut profiteroles can collapse if the choux pastry is underbaked and still holds too much moisture. Avoid opening the oven early, and bake the shells until they are firm and well browned before taking them out to cool.
Should a hazelnut profiterole be served chilled?
Usually, yes. Serving a hazelnut profiterole chilled helps the cream keep its shape and lets the chocolate topping set. Add the sauce close to serving time if you want the pastry shells to stay less soggy.
How can you keep hazelnut profiterole shells crisp?
Keep the baked shells separate from the cream and sauce until close to serving. Once filled, hazelnut profiteroles gradually soften as moisture moves into the pastry, so assembling them ahead reduces their crispness.
How long does hazelnut profiterole last in the fridge?
Store hazelnut profiterole in a covered container in the refrigerator and aim to eat it within a day or two. The cream keeps the dessert perishable, and the pastry softens as it sits.
Can you freeze hazelnut profiterole?
Yes, but freezing fully assembled hazelnut profiteroles can change the cream’s texture after thawing. For better results, freeze the unfilled pastry shells, thaw them, and add the cream, chocolate sauce, and hazelnuts afterward.

What is Hazelnut profiterole?
Hazelnut profiterole takes its cue from the French profiterole: small baked choux-pastry puffs split or filled with cream, then finished with chocolate sauce and hazelnuts. The crisp, airy shells give way to a soft, creamy centre, while the nuts add a toasted crunch and flavour.
It is usually served as an individual pastry or arranged on a plate to share, with coffee or tea. In Turkey, profiteroles are a familiar patisserie and home dessert; elsewhere, they also appear on café menus and at celebrations. Cream, pastry and sauce make it an indulgent, energy-dense sweet: it contains 330 calories per 100 g. For a lighter serving, keep the chocolate sauce modest or share a piece.
